She was Zeus's sister, and like Athena and Artemis a virgin goddess. She has no distinct personality and she plays part in myths. she was the Goddess of the Heath.the symbol of the home, around which the newborn child must be carried beofre it could be received into the family. Evry meal began and ended with an offering to her.
Each city has a public hearth sacred to hestia, where the fire was never allowed to go out. If a colony was to be founded, the colinists caried withthem coals form hearth of the mother-city with which to kindle the fire on the new city's herath.
In Rome, her fire was cared for by six virgin priestesses, called Vestals.

This was indeed true, Hesti was the Goddess of hearth and home. Being the Goddess of Hearth, Hestia was believed to be the Hearth for Mount Olympus and the Gods and Goddesses at Olympus, that was a big power that she used.
